“We are pretty close,” said Brian, “but we need more to get to our final target and for kitting it out.

“Biggar Rally is our main source of funding.”

The Foundation is also seeking new blood.

“Some of our volunteers have been with us for 40 years, and we could use some more,” added Brian.

Anyone who would like to help out at the museum, manning it when it is open to visitors or at the annual rally, should contact Brian on 07828 827963 (Not as shown in the paper!), or speak to any of the Foundation members at the rally.

The event starts at 10am on Sunday. Admission is £8 for adults, £5 concessions.

The regular run, with the stately old vehicles driving a loop through the picturesque Clydesdale back roads, has been postponed and won’t be taking place this year but the veteran, vintage and classic vehicles will still turn heads as they drive into Biggar to take their place in the showfield.
